Thanks girl!... when i did the IVF i though it was for sure i was going to get pregnant but i didnt understand that they can help you with the embryo but still in god hands ( or  nature) for the embryo to stick..doctors can do nothing about this,.....nothing!..at the  end its all nature..so hang in there people..eat a lot of  prunes to clean your system

****Dont eat pineapple if you are pregnant already..its a no no no...until you are 9months pregnant..

when i got the news about being pregnant the doctor told me not to have sex for the following weeks...we didnt  even look at each other for 3 months...lol  we were so scare ...lol  my husband didnt stop talking about the baby.


and then we need to go to see his heart, later blood work, oh my god!  every month is something so hang in there, eat regular, ohhh the vitamins..very important!..i got a whole botom of gummy bears at wallmart for folic acid pills..very good pills!... water !    a lot of water!.
dont stress out  for the blod test trisomy 13, 18, 21  except if they are positive and then go for the amnio...( if you are not scare of needles..go for the amnio)  its the best way and you wont be wondering for 9 months about your baby health.

So the baby is here now...and he awakes every 2 hours to eat, poop and sleep...lol  so rest a lot while you can....lol besides all the vacinnes he needs, the pediatrician visit, all the questions why he poo to much , why he stopped pooping?... why he cries?....its a total new world for first time moms...lol...it doesnt end....lol

good luck to everyone..baby dust to everyone..relax  and ohhh have quickies in the morning, everyday...do not wait for ovulation days or nights to try to make a baby... you never know!...
